| My Past Weekend |
Friday:
1. Went to work and couldn't wait for the day to end.
2. Drove home and waited what seemed like forever for Jeremy to come home.
3. Didn't feel like cooking so we went to Logan's.
4. Trying to be a good girl and ate a salad and had soup.
5. Really wanted Jer's plate, mash potatoes and hot roast beef sandwich with gravy over everything.
6. Just looked at his plate longingly, but in the end, saved many calories and fat cells.
7. Tried to go to the movies but nothing really showing that we wanted to see.
8. Drove home and watched some television and went to sleep.
Saturday:
1. Woke up and nibbled on a banana.
2. Couldn't eat alot because I had to fit in my dress for that night.
3. Went to salon and had my hair professionally done in a beautiful updo.
4. Had my makeup done as well.
5. Came home and took some of it off because I don't wear that much and felt like a hussie. :)
6. Squeezed my thighs and butt into one of those shaper things and knew eating was not an option.
7. Put on my dress and looked at my butt and nodded in approvement! :)
8. Put on my red satin shoes and nodded again.
9. Didn't sit on my dress so walked around the house until I had to leave to meet Jer.
10. Got to the ball and called him to meet me outside.
11. Knocked his socks off when he saw me.....I don't think he recognized me at first.
12. After the initial shock, he broke out in a huge grin and said, "Is that your real hair?"
13. He thought I was wearing a hair piece because my hair is really fine and I looked like I had some nice thick curls.
14. And, yes, it was my real hair!
15. Got a lot of compliments on my shoes; the women loved the shoes.
16. Wasn't able to eat my dinner too much due to the squeezing/tightning sensation I was feeling all night.....the way we suffer to be beautiful!
17. Laughed a lot, had fun, saw some friends.....
18. Wanted to take those shoes off by the end of the night but forced myself to keep them on.
19. Forced Jer to take lots and lots of pictures.
20. Finally, went home and we both collapsed in exhaustion.
21. BUT I couldn't sleep with my hair like that so took three shampoos and a long conditioner session to get my hair back to normal.
22. By then, Jer was snoring and I was yawning.
Sunday:
1. Got up late but made it to church.
2. Picked up my friend and we all went together.
3. Service was great and glad I went.
4. Went to a great mexican restaurant afterwards and finally ATE!
5. Came home and took a 4-hour siesta!!
6. Cleaned the house.
7. Made dinner.
8. Went to Bed!
*Will post pics in a little while....... |

| Time Flies By! |
Wow, it has been a month since I have written! I don't have as much time on my hands as I used to have and I've also just not been in the mood to blog. I think everyone goes through that lapse from time to time. This morning didn't start off to a good start at all when I woke up with a head pounding migraine which was there the night before. I was finally able to get a few hours sleep, but it didn't do much good for the head. I used to have the worst migraines a few years back and then they simply disappeared, but I had a relapse last night and this morning. I don't know what brought it on, but I'm just glad it decided to leave this afternoon or else I would still be stuck in bed I'm sure.
It's getting closer and closer for Jer to leave, and I have good days and then I have bad days. I cried myself to sleep on Saturday night and all the thoughts of being away from him for 15 months and the possibility of his not returning just overwhelmed me. I thank God that I made myself go to church and it was exactly what I needed. I know that God cares for me on a personal level, but you don't really realize it until something happens and you know that it was meant for you. I believe God spoke right through the pastor's message and straight to me. No, it's not some weird spiritual thing that I experienced or that I heard the actual voice of God or anything, but I know I heard His message go through His messenger straight to me. In my heart He was saying, "Nothing will happen that isn't filtered through Me first." And because I know that everything is filtered through Him, I can hang on to the hope and strength that God will give me to get through this war. Even if, God decides to take my husband, I will not turn my back from Him; I will still love you, God! You are my hope and all things work together for good when we are Christ's children....I can hold on to that promise even if the way looks bleak. |
